CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 201811376395.X, entitled “Method and Device for Transaction Clearing”, filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of P. R. China on Nov. 19, 2018, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present disclosure generally relates to the technical field of data processing and, more particularly, relates to a method and a device for transaction clearing.

BACKGROUND

Clearing may include two clearing types, such as interbank clearing and acquiring clearing. The interbank clearing may refer to the clearing with respect to an acquirer and a card issuer. The acquiring clearing may refer to the clearing with respect to merchants and acquiring professional service institutions for the acquirers. Bank card acquiring service may refer to the domestic and foreign currency fund settlement services provided by issuing banks to merchants. That is, finally, cardholders may swipe their cards at merchants contracted with the issuing banks, and funds may be settled by the issuing banks. The settlement process of an acquiring bank is to obtain transaction receipts and transaction data from the merchants, then send the payments to the merchants after deducting the fees which are calculated according to a rate, and deduct a certain percentage of processing fees.

In the payment field, thousands or even more terminals may be connected to the platform servers of merchant acquirers. Normally, the batch clearing of the existing acquiring applications may be scheduled daily, and the clearing batch processing may be performed on all terminals during the clearing process. Such clearing manner may not be sufficiently flexible. If there is an excessive quantity of service backlogs on a certain day, it may cause enormous pressure on the server load.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The technical solutions in various embodiments of the present disclosure are described clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings in various embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely a part of various embodiments of the present disclosure, but not all of various embodiments. Based on various embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

The server 102 may be a server in a platform system of an acquirer, which is used to receive the clearing request transmitted by the client, perform clearing processing, and send a clearing feedback to the client. The server 102 may also automatically initiate clearing tasks internally. The database 103 may store all transaction data, and the server 102 may read the transaction data from the database 103 and perform clearing processing based on the transaction data.

The client 101 may be installed on a terminal. The terminal may a dedicated payment device such as POS (point of sale), a mobile electronic device with transaction payment functions such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a dedicated handheld device, or a device connected by wired access manner with payment functions such as a personal computer (abbreviated as PC), a notebook computer, a server and the like. The server 102 may be a network device, such as a computer and the like. The server 102 may be an independent device or a server cluster formed by multiple servers. Optionally, the server 102 may use cloud computing technology for information processing.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a transaction clearing method. As shown in FIG. 2, the transaction clearing method may include the following steps:

step 201, receiving first clearing requests transmitted by a quantity N of terminals, where N>1;

step 202, according to the first clearing requests, acquiring transaction data of the quantity N of terminals from a database;

step 203, initializing a cache queue, and loading the transaction data into the cache queue;

step 204, reading the transaction data in the cache queue, and performing a clearing process on the transaction data; and

step 205, writing a clearing result into the database and feeding back the terminals with an execution result of the first clearing requests.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure may support the terminals to actively trigger the clearing. The server may receive the first clearing requests transmitted by the terminals, which may be the first clearing request transmitted by one terminal and also be the first clearing requests transmitted by a plurality of terminals simultaneously. The server may acquire the transaction data of a corresponding terminal from the database according to the first clearing request. The cache queue may be initialized, and transaction data may be loaded into the cache queue. The transaction data in the cache queue may be read, the clearing processing may be performed on the transaction data, the clearing result may be written into the database, and the execution result of the first clearing request may be fed back to the terminal. In such way, for a single terminal, the clearing request may be initiated at any time, and a plurality of clearing requests may be initiated within a day, which may meet the real-time clearing needs of the terminal and increase the clearing flexibility. On the other hand, for the clearing processing server, there is no need to process clearing tasks of all terminals simultaneously, which may reduce server load pressure.

The cache queue in various embodiments of the present disclosure may be a ordinary linear queue, a circular queue, or a circular-like queue. Optionally, the circular queue may be used in various embodiments of the present disclosure.

In the above-mentioned step 203, initializing the cache queue may include:

according to the quantity N of terminals, determining a quantity of cache lines of the circular queue, where the quantity of cache lines of the circular queue is 2 to a power of M, where 2M>N.

For an ordinary linear queue, there may be two pointers generally, one may point to the head of the queue and one may point to the end of the queue. The pointer needs to be updated when the elements of the queue are produced or consumed. There are not only read operations but also write operations; meanwhile, the ordinary linear queue may also need to save a variable for the queue size in order to distinguish whether the queue is empty or full. Such three variables may often in a cache line, and there may always be extensive competition between the head pointer, the tail pointer, and the size variable. Meanwhile, for the ordinary linear queue, the computer may start processing the data in the queue from the head of the queue; after the data in a previous cache line is processed, the data in a latter cache line may be moved to the previous cache line to continue processing, which may have an excessively low efficiency. Or, the computer may start processing from the head of the queue; after the data in a previous cache line is processed, the computer may move to a next cache line to continue processing. In such way, the previous cache line may be in an idle status, and the queue capacity may be limited, which may cause queue space waste.

The circular queue adopted in various embodiments of the present disclosure may solve such problems. The circular queue does not need the tail pointer, which may solve the competition operation of the queue head, the queue tail, and the queue size of the ordinary linear queue. In the circular queue, only one producer may write data to the cache line, and each consumer may only need to read the elements in the cache line in the ring, which may not have such competition operation. Meanwhile, the quantity of cache lines in the ring queue may be configured according to the quantity of terminals, which ensures that the data of all terminals may be written into the ring.

In various embodiments of the present disclosure, through modulo operation, the serial number of the cache line in the circular queue which the terminal data is written into may be quickly located. Since the quantity of cache lines in the circular queue is 2 to the power of M, the modulo operation may be converted to bit operation to improve efficiency, which is more beneficial for the calculations based on binary computers.

Specifically, in step 203, loading the transaction data into the cache queue may include:

allocating sequence numbers to the transaction data, where a sequence number is allocated to transaction data of a same terminal; and

for transaction data of any terminal, using a sequence number of the transaction data to perform a modulo operation on the quantity of cache lines of the circular queue, determining a cache line in the circular queue corresponding to the transaction data, and loading the transaction data of the terminal into the corresponding cache line.

In a specific implementation process, the circular queue may be shown in FIG. 3. The cache lines in the circular queue may be connected end to end, the quantity of cache lines in the queue may have been configured, each cache line may have a subscript, and the subscripts of the cache lines may increase sequentially. The server may assign a sequence number to transaction data to-be-processed, and the transaction data of a same terminal may be assigned with a sequence number. Meanwhile, there is a pointer which may assign the sequence numbers to the terminals and point to a next available cache line in the ring, and the server may write a next transaction data to-be-processed into the cache line pointed to by the pointer. As the server keeps filling the ring, the sequence numbers may keep increasing till the ring is completely filled . To locate the cache line pointed to by the pointer, the modulo operation may be used for quickly locating the cache line, that is, the sequence number of the current transaction data may be used to perform the modulo operation on the quantity of all cache lines. Since the size of the ring is 2 to the power of M, it is more beneficial for the calculations based on binary computers.

In order to accelerate the data processing, in various embodiments of the present disclosure, multiple threads may be used to process the transaction data in the circular queue in parallel. In step 203, initializing the cache queue may further include:

according to the quantity of terminals, establishing multiple threads.

In step 204, reading the transaction data in the cache queue may include:

parallel-reading the transaction data in the cache queue by the multiple threads.

Furthermore, if certain terminals do not trigger clearing requests within a preset time, in order to avoid missing clearing, automatic clearing may be scheduled regularly in various embodiments of the present disclosure. Prior to initializing the cache queue and loading the transaction data into the cache queue, the method may further include:

acquiring second clearing requests, where the second clearing requests are launched internally after a preset time is detected; and

according to the second clearing requests, acquiring transaction data, from a history time before the preset time to within the preset time, from the database.

In a specific implementation process, the transaction data in the database may be configured to be automatically and regularly cleared on a daily basis. The timing module inside the server may start the timing service regularly on a daily basis, and initiate a timing clearing task request. For example, the timing module may start the timing service at 22:00 every day and initiate the timing clearing task request to clear uncleared transaction data in the database between 22:00 of a previous day and 22:00 of a current day.

Moreover, various embodiments of the present disclosure may also adopt quantitative activation, that is, when the transaction data of a certain quantity of terminals is stored in the database each time, the clearing request may be initiated. For example, if the transaction data of 1000 terminals is stored in the database, the quantitative module inside the server may be triggered to initiate a quantitative clearing task request.

In such way, the terminal random trigger clearing and the server's internal regularly-scheduled and quantitative clearing may exist simultaneously, which may increase the flexibility of transaction clearing.

In order to understand the present disclosure more clearly, the above-mentioned process may be described in detail with below specific embodiments. The specific scenario in the exemplary embodiment one is that the terminal triggers the clearing task. The specific steps, shown in FIG. 4, may include the following steps.

In step 401, a user may use the client on the terminal, such as a cashier clicks an instant clearing trigger button of the POS APP, to send an instant clearing request to the server through a HTTPS POST manner. The server may provide a random and instant clearing processing service interface to an external terminal for an external client to call.

In step 402, after receiving the clearing task, a data loading module may collect a clearing summary, read terminal transaction data from the database according to the request summary, and verify whether the terminal meets a clearing condition, such as whether the terminal is normal, and whether the terminal has unfinished transactions.

In step 403, the data loading module may start a queue controller.

In step 404, the queue controller may initialize the circular queue, and register the data loading module to the circular queue as a producer of the circular queue. The initialization task may include configuring the quantity of cache lines in the circular queue as the M power of 2; and establish a circular queue of a generic data type, which is a transferred event type where inputted data is event type data, for storing/transferring objects of clearing tasks (including attributes such as a merchant number, a terminal number, a clearing date, a clearing status, a batch number, a total amount, a total number of transactions, a transaction amount, a number of transactions, a return amount, a number of returns, and the like). Meanwhile, five parameters of the circular queue may be configured simultaneously.

The first parameter may be the factory class which generates events, where the events encapsulate generation-transaction data, that is, the clearing event object.

The second parameter may be the quantity of cache lines in the circular queue.

The third parameter may be a thread pool, including multiple threads (consumers), where one thread is configured to read and process transaction data in one cache line of the circular queue.

The fourth parameter may be the quantity of producers (data loading modules), where a single producer is used.

The fifth parameter may be the consumer waiting strategy, that is, after repeated unsuccessful attempts, exiting CPU and waiting for the next scheduling.

In step 405, the queue controller may start a clearing processing module, that is, establish a thread (consumer). One or more clearing processing modules may be established according to the clearing parameter, and one clearing processing module may perform clearing processing on the transaction data of one terminal. If there is only one terminal requesting clearing immediately, one clearing processing module may be established.

In step 406, the data loading module may write the transaction data to-be-cleared into the circular queue.

In step 407, the clearing processing module may read the transaction data to-be-cleared in the circular queue and start the clearing logic processing. Herein, multiple consumers, that is, multiple clearing processing modules, may process the transaction data in parallel.

In step 408, after the clearing processing module completes the clearing processing, the clearing results may be written into the database.

In step 409, after the database update is completed, the execution results may be summarized and fed back to the data loading module.

In step 410, the data loading module may notify the terminal application that the clearing is completed and may feed back the clearing results. Meanwhile, the data loading module may transmit a clearing completion notification to the queue controller.

In step 411, the queue controller may close the circular queue according to the clearing completion notification and close the clearing processing module.

The specific scenario in the exemplary embodiment two is that the clearing is regularly-scheduled by the server. The timing service module may be started regularly and initiate a timing clearing task request. The specific steps, shown in FIG. 5, may include the following steps.

In step 501, the timing service module may detect a preset time and initiate a timing clearing request for inter-process call to the data loading module. The server may provide batch timing service interfaces for clearing processing to an internal module for the timing service module to call.

Steps 502 to 509 may be same as steps 402 to 409, which may not be repeated herein.

In step 510, the data loading module may notify the timing service module of the clearing completion. Meantime, the data loading module may transmit a clearing completion notification to the queue controller.

In step 511, the queue controller may close the circular queue according to the clearing completion notification and close the clearing processing module.
